In this demonstration, we will showcase Myria, our novel cloud service for big data management and analytics designed to improve productivity. Myria's goal is users simply upload their the system help them be self-sufficient science experts on -- self-serve analytics. Using a web browser, Myria can data, author efficient queries process explore debug correctness performance issues. are executed scalable, parallel cluster that uses both state-of-the-art methods distributed query processing....
The existing slowness of the web on mobile devices frustrates users and hurts revenue website providers. Prior studies have attributed high page load times to dependencies within process: network latency in fetching a resource delays its processing, which turn when dependent resources can be discovered fetched.
A new non-visual method of numeric entry into a smartphone is designed, implemented, and tested. Users tap the screen with one to three fingers or swipe in order enter numbers. No buttons are used--only simple, easy-to-remember gestures. preliminary valuation sighted users compares standard accessible keyboard VoiceOver-like reader interface for entry. We found that entered numbers faster higher accuracy our number than interface, showing there potential use among blind people as well. The...
Mobile web browsing remains slow despite many efforts to accelerate page loads. Like others, we find that client-side computation (in particular, JavaScript execution) is a key culprit. Prior solutions mitigate overheads, however, suffer from security, privacy, and deployability issues, hindering their adoption.
The web is littered with millions of links which previously worked but no longer do. When users encounter any such broken link, they resort to looking up an archived copy the linked page. But, for a sizeable fraction these links, copies exist. Even if exists, it often poorly approximates original page, e.g., functionality on page requires client browser communicate page's backend servers will not work, and even latest be missing updates made content after that was captured.
